Volkswagen Golf (2013 - 2020)
2.0TDI 184 Gtd 3dr Hatchback
One of best cars around
Absolutely fantastic car. Has good looks, high quality interior, superb 2.0 TDI engine and excellent handling. Love the way this car drives with a smooth power delivery and huge amount of torque available in any gear. The engine revs very smoothly and does not feel too 'diesely". It's a very quiet motorway cruiser with only a little tyre noise from the 18 inch alloy wheels. The gear change is very slick and a well weighted clutch pedal also. The steering is very direct and thus the car is easy to thread through bends easily while remaining composed at motorway speeds. The interior of the car is of a very high quality and the grey Jacara cloth seats are admired by all passengers. Other nice touches include a GTD badge on the leather steering, led lighting which create a sophisticated atmosphere at night, and a 6.5 inch touchscreen including sat nav as standard. The car is very well equipped with heated seats, bi-xenon headlights and led rear lights which give the car real presence- much better looking than an A3, A class or 1 series. The only thing missing is keyless entry which is standard on the 5 door but not on the 3 door strangely. The car is cheap to run also with low insurance costs especially for a 20 year old male and fuel economy is hovering around 47 mpg which means a tank of fuel gives around 500 miles which is acceptable but is improving as more miles go on the clock - its only on 2000 at the moment. the three door model is still very practical but i would recommend the 5 door if the rear seats are going to be used regularly as it is much harder to get into than a 5 door model. overall a highly recommended model that copes with every challenge it is faced with.
